Trailer & Synopsis
After establishing herself as one of France’s most popular and successful comediennes, the multi-talented Laure Calamy follows Full Time with another dramatic tour-de-force in writer/director Anne-Sophie Bailly’s deeply affecting my everything.
Calamy plays single, middle-aged beautician Mona, completely dedicated to her 30-year-old son Joël (Charles Peccia Galletto), who lives with a neurological disability. Joël works in a specialised facility and is secretly in love with co-worker Océane; while Mona knows nothing of their relationship, all is revealed when it becomes evident that Océane is pregnant.Océane’s parents and Mona are collectively stunned by the news, but the couple declare they are in love and determined to forge a life together. Mona finds herself torn between her son’s iron will, her maternal instincts and a suppressed desire to enjoy life on her own terms…
Emotionally involving and honest, Bailly’s debut feature offers a moving observation of caregiving, inter-dependence and how society treats the rights of the most fragile. With Calamy excelling alongside her impressive non-professional co-stars, my everything is a stirring and resonant story of motherhood, compassion and acceptance.
